Lyon Cathedral Review

The Cathedral of Saint Jean, located on the banks of the Thorne River in Lyon, France, was built in 1170 and is a mix of medieval and gothic styles. The church is named after the Cathedral of Lyon because of its status as the Archbishop of Lyon. It was here that Henry IV and Queen Mary de Medici were celebrated.

The cathedral of Saint Jean was built from the late 11th to early 16th centuries and was built in a very long time with a Gothic facade. Although the church is small, it is very high. It can be seen on Mount Fuvier.

The chief cathedral of Saint Jean, in the most conspicuous position of the old town, is very simple, not quite the same as the exquisite and complex churches common in Paris, France, there is a sculpture clock very beautiful, there is a sun god standard on it.

The chief cathedral of Saint Jean in the old city of Lyon is a typical Gothic building with a history of nearly a thousand years. Without the endless queues of Notre Dame cathedrals, entering the church and sitting quietly for a while, the manic restlessness naturally calms in the solemn atmosphere and the background music of the chants. The church's glass windows are beautiful, each pattern is different, the sun shines through, and the photos do not reflect a tenth of the beauty. It is also the place where Pope John 22 was coronated, and it also witnessed the wedding of King Henry IV and Queen Mary. The church has a famous astronomical clock, and it is said that it will ring on time at 12 o'clock, the little people inside will come out to dance, everyone waiting, until 12:15 did not see this scene, some regret.

The main church of Lyon Saint Jean was built in 1170 and is a perfect combination of medieval and gothic style. It must not be missed that the 15th century astronomical clocks in the church ring on time every noon, 14, 15 and 16 o'clock, and you can see the small people inside the clock coming out to perform. The church is located in the old town of (Vieux Lyon), at the foot of Mount Fuvier, where European Renaissance architecture is concentrated. St. George's Church, St. Jean's Church and St. Paul's Church showcase Lyon's Renaissance masterpieces, and the pedestrian streets of the old district must not be missed.
